California Farm Grand Marnier Liqueur

Valencia Oranges are the last ones of the California season to ripen, ready late August, packed with summer sun. Their thin bittersweet peels make the perfect zest for making this liqueur. I added some secret ingredients, listed below. By the time the flavors have been extracted, this treat will be ready for the holidays.

Steps

Steep coffee beans, vanilla bean or vanilla extract, crushed almonds and crushed walnuts in cup of grain alcohol with 1/2 cup of simple sugar syrup in mason jar for a month. Taste tsp of extract mixed with tsp of brandy, add walnut, almond, vanilla, or coffee to taste, add another cup of grain alcohol, another 1/2 cup of simple sugar syrup, steep another month.

At the same time, soak 6 valencia oranges and 4 mandarin oranges overnight, dry and peel the skins, not the white pith part, then dry 2 months in closed paper bag. Then add to extract, steep 4 months.

Filter extract into large pan through funnel with paper tower filter. Add 2 cups of brandy to one cup of filtered extract, makes 3 bottles of 750 mi. I use champagne bottles with reclosable tops.

Put leftover peels, coffee beans, walnuts, almonds,vanilla bean back in mason jar, cover with cup of grain alcohol and 1/2 cup simple sugar water, store a few more months to make an additional 3 bottles, half a year later.
